Hey Jay! I'm not a part of Km/H.

I'm a part of the Polo 1.6 only club in Cochin.

Regarding the pics of your club, most of them are from email forwards.

More from Kerala. It's Ford Figo that gets the revamp

That is one hot looking ride. It does look like a Figo now from the front. This is an i20 2012 model correct ?

agspins · 4th July 2013, 22:57

Last time i heard this was made by Ford

, Isnt that a Figo...

That's a Figo as we know it.

Nope, that ain't a i20. It's a Figo.

I've got to say that the *ahem* Figo now looks much better with these touches. I like the eye-lids in particular.

The face-lifted Figo is frankly appalling largely due to the surprised look that the new headlights give it. I much prefer the way the old Figo looks any day over the new one. Even that 'cheapened' grille is hard to digest. And did I mention that it looks ridiculous in yellow. Sorry for the rant, had to vent.

^
That's the facelifted Figo and it looks stunning. I would have left the Ford badge on the grille though.

Sheel · 5th July 2013, 09:07

To me it appears as the facelifted one with old model's head-lamps. The ORVM's are a giveaway that it is a Ford.

MaxTorque · 5th July 2013, 09:49

^ This is the hottest Ford Figo, I have ever seen. Like Deetjohn said, you can try by keeping the blue ovel in it's place. Also does that red Tow Hook really necessary..?

deathwalkr · 5th July 2013, 10:12

@Maxtorque: The tow hooks have now more or less become standard accessory for every modded car this side of the country along with dummy ham antennas. Just a passing fad i guess.

Xryder · 5th July 2013, 11:45

My bad. I thought it was a modded i20 with after market lamps. Looks stunning and definitely a head turner. Can you provide side views as well?

This Thar hates tar. M&M gets a revamp. Not sure if its posted here before.

any idea whats the tire size on the zen, near the beach ?? And are there are alterations done so that the tire doesn't touches the car's body?

Not sure how effective those fatties would be on an OTR trail. Come to think of it, I'm not sure if they would be effective on smooth tarmac either. It will only aid in creating drag. And is that some kind of car-bra on the Thar?
